So it sounds like Bovada -- the U.S.-serving online poker site (and casino and racebook and sportsbook) -- is going to shut down its poker operations at the end of September.
The poker room has been sold to a site called Ignition Casino, and players have been invited to open accounts over there and have their funds transferred over. An email to players explains how Ignition’s poker room “uses the same platform as Bovada,” and so includes all the same games and tournaments.
In fact, the site looks very much like a “skin” of Bovada in every respect.
